Homes north of the Anthem Hills Park detention basin are protected from flood waters by the massive earthen dam, which also provides park goers with a view of the Las Vegas Strip. Built to protect the lower areas of the Anthem development in Henderson, the basin acts both as flood control and recreational area.
